FAQ:

Important: XVM now requires to everyone to use their site to activate stats. (else XVM will not work)

Answer:

In new versions to use statistics in XVM, you should activate it in your personal cabinet at the official website of XVM.
Registration is not required because Wargaming.net ID is used for authorization.
For testing, you should use XVM 5.2.0-test1 or higher.Discussion and testing: topic on official XVM forums.

On the official website of XVM (www.ModXVM.com) click on the “Sign in” button at the top of the site.
In the menu that appears to select the region of servers where you play in World of Tanks.

If you are not logged in on Wargaming.net, you’ll be asked to log in.

For the authorization enter the email and password used in the game.

Note: this is the official website of WarGaming.net Corporation, designed specifically for secure authorization on any resource.
Do not enter your email address and password from the game on other websites for your safety. Also, in order to protect against phishing not forget to check the website address in the browser address bar.

After passing authorization (or if you are already have been logged in) you will be prompted to provide access to your nickname for the site account.modxvm.com.

Note: Only your nickname is used for authorization. No other information, such as your email and password, will be shared.

Click “Continue Sign In”.

After finishing the authorization through service Wargaming.net ID you’ll be returned to the official site of XVM, where you can activate access to the statistics for your account:

After successful activation, you will see the duration of your access to the statistics.
Upon expiry of the activation, you can extend it again.
Now you can see the statistics in the XVM if its display is enabled and configured in your configuration.

\World_of_Tanks\res_mods\xvm\configs\J1mB091 (last part might be different for you; depends on the xvm version you are using from the modpack). There are about 30 *.xc files in that folder.

Click on the tab 'Colors 1'. Now you can change the colors for friendlies and enemies (and also for platoon members and teamkillers).

If needed click on Colors 2 tab and change colors here too (In Colors 2 you can change the colors used by xvm (either color of the text or color of the dots) to show winrate, WN8 etc.)

Save the .xc files as xvm.xc in \World_of_Tanks\res_mods\xvm\configs\

When the battle loads i'm zoomed in on the gun barrel and need to zoom out to see the tank, any way to change this?

Answer:

Open the file "onStartDeadDistance.json" with Notepad++.

The file is located in \World_of_Tanks\res_mods\0.9.1\scripts\client\mods\PMOD\

Look for the line "startDistance"

Change the value behind that line to 10

Save the file and restart your client. If you want to zoom out a bit more, change the value to (e.g.) 12.

The lower the value: the more zoomed in, the higher the value, the more zoomed out.

Internal error: ExtractTemporaryFile: The file "idp.dll" was not found

Answer:

idp.dll is a file inside the installer. The file is needed to download the mod pack files (DLCs). Most likely cause for this error is the firewall or virus scanner blocking it when the installer started to try to download the mod pack files.

Enable win chance prediction when loading, in battle and in the after battle report:

Save the file and restart your client. You will now have your standard garage back

Error: Game won't start

Answer:

Add the line -integrity to your launcher and start the game. (World_of_Tanks\WOTLauncher.exe -integrity),

Now the game will check for missing or corrupted files and redownload and add them. This might take up some time (depending how many files are missing or corrupted). After that, the problem should be solved.

If the game still won't start (some) mods might be causing it. Rename your res_mods folder to res_mods.bck and create a new, empty, res_mods folder.

If the game still won't start the only solution might be a completely clean install of the full client.

Error: I Don't see my stats after the battle. Getting the message Bad Token

Answer:

Close your client and (re)activate XVM on the website (http://www.modxvm.com/). After that restart your client.

Zoom Out

Answer:

Open the file zoomDistance.json with Notepad++. The file is located in

\World_of_Tanks\res_mods\0.9.1\scripts\client\mods\PMOD\

Look for the line:

“arcadeDistance" : [2, 105],

First is absolute min and secound is absolute max.

Change the numbers to your likings.

How to shorten/lengthen the visibility of the Info panel?

Answer:

Open the file InfoPanel.xml with Notepad++ and look for the lines: delay >6 (the file contains 4 of these lines. Change the value 6 to a lower value to shorten the visibility or to a higher value to lengthen it.

The file is located in in res_mods\0.9.1\gui\scaleform\InfoPanel.xml
